Programming / Re: Is This A Crime Under The Law? by elfico(m): 10:06pm On Oct 30, 2016
greatghana:
i saw this beautiful and intelligent application online built in India, the application was developed using php, I requested for the demo which they sent to me, now am building almost the same thing with little differences but am using c#, I want to ask do I commit any crime under the law? Note am building for commercial purpose as well

These are tricky water to navigate. If the software comes with a license and you are voilating any terms of that license, then its a crime wether you implement it in another language or not. The fact that you requested for a demo and then go ahead to build a similar product really beats me.

Programming / Re: Programmers Pls Help A Beginner! by elfico(m): 1:04pm On Oct 04, 2016
Can you paste your connectionstring here?

And which of the .NET technologies are you using? Webforms or MVC? C# or VB?

@elfico am a beginner just learnt the fundamental of C# programming I want to put what have learnt to build a useful application like a store application were you can shop for items.
Ok. Nevertheless, you should try and debug you app from time to time as it will enable you catch errors when they happen.
did you check the connection string?

Can't python/django be used for server side?
Thanks for your response smiley
Of course it can. If you prefer python, then go for it. But its not as easy to learn as PHP.
Programming / Re: Programmers Pls Help A Beginner! by elfico(m): 8:16pm On Oct 03, 2016
Check your connections string in the web.config file.
I am a bit curious as to how you developed for over a week without running the application.

Programming / Re: What The Different Between ENUM And ARRAY In Java by elfico(m): 8:06pm On Oct 03, 2016
seunthomas:
@elfico is actually right on enum but i want to slightly differ on arrays. Arrays may not necesarily always store the same type. There are specialized arrays that can hold any value but they still follow basic rules guiding array datatype.
Thanks. I actually posted as per general rule. I am not conversant with java. In javascript, array holds multiple types. In C#, arraylist also holds multiple types, but array must specify the type they hold and I believe this holds true especially for strongly-typed languages.

Programming / Re: What The Different Between ENUM And ARRAY In Java by elfico(m): 5:47pm On Oct 03, 2016
Enums are like defined named constants. they are user-defined data types.
For example an enum called Months could be defined as follows:
enum months {
january = 1;
febraury =2;
.....
....
}

when you want to use the above

year thismonth, lastmonth;

thismonth = january;
lastmonth = march;

arrays on the other hand are used to store similar data e.g to store thr age of 20 students, you declare an array of size 20.

First of all, its not really cool to crack other peoples app. You should find a free version or pay for the app. Alternatively, you can ask someone here to make an app for you and specify the requirements.
Developers put alot of time and effort into making apps and trying not to pay is like stealing.
Secondly, I thinks its against nairaland rule to post things of that nature.

HTML, CSS and Javascript is a must for you to learn. For the server side language, I would suggest PHP.
PHP is easy to learn and master for beginner programmers and it has a community support.
Python is good too, but its not as easy to learn as PHP.
C++ and C are mostly deployed for System and Application software. You really shouldnt bother yourself about them since all you want is web developement.

After mastering html,css,javascript,php and mysql, you can leverage this knowledge and use it build hybrid apps since you said you want to make an app too.

Remember, I didnt say any of the above would be easy. It would take you a long time to master all the above technologies and use the effectively to build your website and app. But if you have the passion, you can succeed.

I am studying computer science now and i can tell you many of them don't know anything about programming big time yet

its a waste, and our curriculum is dumb
I think that is a misconception.
Computer Science is not all about programming.

Programming / Re: Open Sourcing Sachng, I Need Your Advice And Idea by elfico(m): 6:27pm On Aug 13, 2016
Me thinks open sourcing it would help further development. I would advise you to see it as fun project rather than a product because you may not be able to rival bigger tech coy that do search. Google does search better and even if you have maybe hundreds of engineers and devs working on sachng, you can only begin to try competing. Have you heard of shodan and duckduckgo? If you havent, this should tell you how google has monopolized searching. Yahoo just got acquired by Verizon cos they couldnt compete with google.
Programming / Re: Who Knows The Best Bulk SMS Site?? by elfico(m): 2:21pm On Aug 13, 2016
Raypawer:
so true, i've tested this, what help them is that they use c# and that you get a service after first login post, so other post made needs no login rather service id so in case your making post of about 10,000 numbers its very fast on like others that are majorly php that you have to make post 10,000 times with authentication

i will have to take a look once again, but their pricing... no be here oh!

if they really as good as you say, then I better try it to. I used nexmo before, but the exchange rate made it more expensive so I switched to ebulksms.com. It worked well until I sent bulk messages using their api. The whole thing just messed up big time, causing serious service failure. And their customer care did nothing about. Called severally and in the end I was given 500 units as compensation for losing about 8000 units. Need less to say, I switched back to nexmo. Am not willing to sacrifice credibilty over cost. But will try this smslive247
Phones / Re: Do The Battery Saver Applications Actually Work? If They Do, Which Is The Best? by elfico(m): 9:29am On Aug 11, 2016
Battery consumption on phones are caused by these factors
CPU governor type
Background apps AND processes
And RAM consuming apps.

Some of those battery saving apps only take care of Background Apps by closing them after you have used them.

To really save your battery, you have to take care of the above listed factors.

- We have a lot of CPU governors that you can set your phone to use, but the best way is to install a faster and battery saving kernel which has been optimized to use the best CPU governor because not all phones will let you change the CPU governor.

- You can install a custom ROM. This take care of useless bloatware and allows you to install only the apps you need thereby saving RAM space and optimizing your phone.

- Another way is to root the phone and install Xposed Framework and some modules such as purify, greenify, Prevent e.t.c Prevent stops apps from running in the background. You have to be careful though as this means you wont get messages from apps like whatsapp, bbm and other social media apps.
